OpenComm (Rebranded as Shokz OpenComm) Wireless Stereo Bone Conduction Bluetooth Headset with Noise-Canceling Boom Microphone for Office Home Business Trucker Drivers Commercial Use, Black

First off, I had no clue what I was getting into with bone conduction audio. It sounded gimmicky to be honest. However I was in the market for a headset to use for conference calls over webex, teams, zoom and the like. I specifically wanted something that I could still be situationally aware and be able to hear the sound of my own voice. I work in an office environment where people do come by the office to talk and I do want to know when someone is around me. The other issue is being able to hear myself. When I've used full coverage headsets or ones that are on both ears, I slowly get louder and louder to the point I'm nearly yelling. The looks I get from co-workers is not nice if looks could speak. I've also used the kind that only go over one ear with the microphone boom and the plantronics BT ones that hang over one ear. The former feels unbalanced on my head and I feel like I should be in a call center, while the latter falls off my ears (I have thin, weak ears). So I took a gamble on these which really paid off! First off they are not cheap, but I remember some of the first BT headsets weren't either. The fit is amazing. Very lightweight and doesn't feel like its squeezing your head. The hoop portion is awesome since its goes behind your head rather than over it. Bonus points for not dentin' my 'do! The transducers sit just right in front of your earholes and don't cover them at all. Fully aware of your surroundings at all times with no earhole fatigue. The boom mic is small and just goes as far as mid-cheek so I don't even see it in my field of vision. Now if you like me the first thing you are going to do is play music to see how they sound. You are not going to be super impressed. It can sounds a bit tinny with not a lot of base. The highs and mids sound really good though. However that is not the point of this headset, which is for communications. Call someone up and talk to them and they will sound perfectly clear and distinct. The other end of the call said I sounded perfect with no background noise. No issues with making out different speakers in multi person calls either. Now that doesn't mean you should not listen to music on these. I often do between calls. Bone conduction means your co-worker neighbors are not bothered by sound leakage. The open ear design does mean that base suffers however you can remedy this with earplugs. Test this out by plugging you ears with your fingers and you'll notice a huge change in base. Overall, these check all my boxes for two-way audio communication. Light, comfortable and great sounding; so far these have lasted me all day long on a single charge. Magnetic charger is nice, while the carry case is overly large. You could put full size headphones in that case. Definitely give yourself sometime to adjust to bone conduction audio as it is a bit jarring at first to be able to 'listen' thru your jawbone. I haven't had any issue with it other than some slight tickling when there is a track with heavy base in it and the transducer buzz against the sides of my head. Great headset!

So, I have to say I was a bit skeptical that these would be comfortable or work as advertised. I was wrong! The sound quality is amazing! I've had zero complaints about not being heard which was surprising because the mic is super short. It's made from a rubber type material and is for the most part very comfortable. Today it was a bit touchy. It sits in front of the ear and loops over. I got a little sore from wearing it several hours without a break. I do wish there was a way to cushion it without messing with sound quality. I wear glasses and I've never been able to wear headphones or hair bands comfortably, and they give me migraines so it's a no go for me. And ear buds will not stay in my ears no matter what kind or size I try. This however, loops behind my head, and fits comfortably enough that I don't worry about it sliding out of place. The charger is cool. Never had a magnetic charger before. Battery life so far has been great, used them 2 days in a row for 8 hr shifts and it barely ate any battery life. Comes with a nice case as well to protect them when in transit or not in use for long periods of time. I can hear other things in the house like a knock at the door or crashes from the cats figting. It would be great for those working from home with kids in the house. You can still keep your ears open to hear whats going on.The only issue I really had was after I paired to the pc, I forgot to turn off the Bluetooth on my phone where I had been trying it out. Couldn't get it to sync up until I realized what I had done. I would highly recommend these for anyone that has to work on a phone all day. Great buy and will buy again if these ever give up on me.

I had a pair of open aftershokz and loved them, but when I used them to talk on my phone people said it sounded like I was in a well. Then I saw these on sale and purchased them. My job is as a virtual instructor, and I have been through a few headsets. These are by far the best! They are lightweight and very comfortable, the audio is the clearest, the mic output is sharp and crisp. It has the best noise dampening from the mic. My students don’t hear my ac running or the neighbor’s barking dog. You can cancel noise by putting in ear plugs (this will also bring out the bass if listening to music). The only areas I would love to see a bit of improvement is in the wireless range ability. All of my other wireless sets could work in the bathroom with all doors in between closed. This one is spotty if I leave all doors open. No running to the bathroom during back to back meetings. I would love a slight increase in battery life. Generally, the battery lasts all day, depending on use, but I often need to charge it during my lunch hour. I will say as fit goes I have a rather small head and my husband that wears a 7 5/7 hat claims he does not find them comfortable. I, however, am extremely pleased with these and do not want to go back to my other sets. I’m thinking of purchasing a second pair as a backup and would encourage anyone on the fence to give these a go.

I bought this item on 23 Dec 2022 to use for Zoom meetings after wired and wireless in-ear buds proved too frustrating (falling out, wire getting in the way, etc.). The bone conduction design will not satisfy audiophiles for music listening, but it's still pretty solid. Voice audio (calls, podcasts, and similar) is great. They stay in place, too. In fact I like them enough that today (26 Dec 2025) I ordered the "2025 Update" version of this headset, which brings me to the only disappointing thing about the product: Almost to the day, the microphone quit working 3 years after purchase. Still pairs with PC and phone, listening still works, but no mic (after hours of troubleshooting and trying fixes) means a new headset is a must. Bummer.

I use the headset for calls and to chat with friends on Discord when Zwifting. Comfortable for long use as they use bone conduction and don’t sit on or in ear. Small boom mic is good and seems to cancel surrounding noise, focusing on my voice. Controls are a little fiddly but I don’t consider this to be a showstopper. They are quite expensive but good quality and do a really good job for a bluetooth headset. I wouldn’t recommend these if you primarily want to listen to music - they sound okay but are not intended for this as primary function. If you want them for calls or Discord/gaming use, they are great. Picked mine up in Black Friday deal saving 25% (c. £35).

What an amazing little headset. Super light, and fits behind the head so that it doesn't mess up your hair (yes, it's important for us ladies). I was having issues with earbuds. I have highly sensitive ears, and I had earaches after wearing buds even for 10 minutes. My earaches would last for a few hours. My sister's Hearing Technician said she bought these for her husband for the same reason. She sent me the link, and I bought them right away! I received them in a few days! OMG! What a difference. I love these because I don't have to take them out every 2 seconds when someone else is talking to you, or you have to divert your attention somewhere else. They also pair up super fast, and they last 16 hours on a single charge! Can you say YAY??? :) :) I can hear great out of them, and my husband doesn't hear anything even while I'm sitting beside him on the couch! No more earaches.... YAY! I can't wait to try them in my car! LOVE THESE AND I CAN'T SAY IT ENOUGH <3

I wasn't sure if AfterShokz OpenComm was going to meet my needs i.e. comfortable in wearing it for long hours, able to hear clearly whether it's me or the party on the other end of my call, and the longest duration each charge will hold or at least it should last me for a day with each charge. And to my pleasant surprise, it met all my needs and ticks all the boxes. I am really happy with it. However, there is just a small thing what I find annoying is switching from one call to another source such as a PC and back. I wish it had a switch or a button for me to just toggle between two calls so it is very straightforward. Anyway, in the absence of anything better that I have tried previously, I would still recommend this product to anyone looking for a wireless headset.

Léger et agréable, surtout n'empêche pas d'entendre les bruits extérieur ( danger ou autre ) par contre votre correspondant n'entend pas ce qui se passe autour de vous sauf cas gros travaux, chantiers. Je n'ai mis que quatre étoiles pour le prix que je trouve un peu élevé. Sinon, super appareil qui tient bien la charge et bien sûr vous laisse les mains libres.

Eccezionali per l'homeworking, si attaccano a telefono e PC in contemporanea (una sola chiamata attiva per volta), microfono noise cancelling molto buono, le uniche che lo montano su una piccola asta che può essere alzata e abbassata, questo rende l'audio in chiamata drasticamente superiore rispetto alle altre cuffie, gli interlocutori sentono sempre la voce forte e chiara, ovviamente ci sono limiti, tutto dipende anche dalla quantità e dal tipo di rumore di fondo. A fine giornata zero affaticamento delle orecchie, leggerissime. Custodia sagomata per le cuffie e tasca per il cavetto di ricarica proprietario, molto pratica e necessaria per proteggere il prodotto durante il trasporto. La qualità dell'audio in ingresso è ottima considerando che sono a conduzione ossea. La batteria è praticamente eterna (2gg uso intensivo) ed è vero che con 5' di carica di aggiungono moltissimi minuti di call, forse non le due ore dichiarate ma ci andiamo vicino. Le rarissime disconnessioni, che potrebbero dipendere dal sw e non dalle cuffie, si risolvono con spengimento e riaccensione, operazione che si completa in totale in meno di 5". In sintesi insostituibile per lunghe call con audio forte e chiaro ma soprattutto che non lasciano affaticati.
